            Bug ID: 887707
           Summary: RFE: Freeze XML that on which a particular translation
                    is based.
           Product: Publican
           Version: 3.0
         Component: publican
          Severity: unspecified
          Priority: unspecified
          Reporter: r.landmann at redhat.com

[this RFE addresses "freezing" the XML against which a translation applies;
splits this from RFE #708278]

Description of problem:
When documents are not branched carefully, it's very easy for translations to
fall out of step with published books, making it very difficult to correct the
translation of one particular version of a document without pulling in all the
subsequent changes to the document.

This can be solved with version control; but not all documentation projects use
a version control system, and not all authors or translators are skilled in its
use even when it exists. 

It would be good if Publican itself could  "freeze" a version of the original
language against which translations are applied.
